Pro-Sculpt Polymer Clay
Wooden Tool
Medium Soft Brush to clean and smooth
Sharp Carving Knife
Needle Tool
Small Stylus
Oven preheated to 275 degrees
You will need: polymer clay (I prefer ProSculpt because it’s firm enough to create tiny details yet soft enough to make smoothing easy) a wooden tool (try to stay away from metal tools as much as possible as they make your clay dirty), medium soft brush to clean and smooth, a sharp carving knife, a needle tool (you can use a sewing needle if you don’t have the tool) and a small stylus.l

|
|
|
Shape a small rectangle and make 4 short cuts (no need to make them long, we’ll do that later)
|
|
|
|
Cut a small triangle from both sides of each finger and make them look like carrots.
Some fingers might be a little too fat, so trim the edges with a carving knife, make them a bit more rounded.
|
|
|
|
Roll and shape each finger with your fingers. Be careful, it’s easy to tear them off!
|
|
|
|
Pull each finger so they are not so fat anymore.
|
|
|
|
BOO! No, we’re not making a Halloween monster, let me finish!:)
Cut about half off to about two-thirds of the final length
Roll again with your fingers. See, it kind of begins to look like a human hand!
|
|
|
|
Your hand should look somewhat like this now.
|
|
|
|
With a wooden tool indicate bones that you want to show. You don’t need to do this if you’re making a child. This makes your hand look fragile and feminine.
|
|
|
|
Now turn your hand palm up. With a wooden tool make a hollow for the thumb.
|
|
| Step 10 |
 |
|
Here is your thumb. Make sure one half is thinner than the other.
Position the thumb. The thick half goes on the palm side.
Attach with a tool.
|
|
|
|
For the index and middle fingers roll tiny balls of clay to form the bones.
|
|
|
|
Smooth with a tool and spend some time smoothing and shaping with a brush. Using a needle tool, mark the nails. Create tiny lines on the palm with a stylus. Use your own palm as a reference.

Ta-daaa! We’re done!
